Jesus, our Good Shepherd, embodies unconditional love and care, meeting our every need, guiding us through life’s trials, and restoring our souls with complete forgiveness. He loves us, His sheep, so much that He laid down His life so that we would be safe eternally. Parents are called to mirror this love by nurturing their children with care, guidance, and a commitment to their faith. May our Good Shepherd’s boundless love give us comfort and encouragement every single day.

Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Because He lives, we see success clearly now. Jesus’ resurrection pierces through the fog of a sin-clouded world, unveiling a clear understanding of true success. True success isn’t about what you achieve but about being where Jesus places you. It’s trusting His perfect wisdom, whether you’re soothing a crying infant or tackling daily work. Even in moments of failure, Christ’s triumph covers you with grace. Ultimately, regardless of your successes or failures, Jesus’ victory assures you of eternal success.

How does Jesus approach his fearful disciples on the evening of that first Easter Sunday? Does he scold them? No, he brings a word of comfort. He calms them with the peace that only He can give. That same unending, unchanging peace is also ours because of Jesus’ Resurrection. The peace that He gives us both calms our hearts and emboldens us to share the Good News. Just as Jesus calmed and commissioned his disciples, he also calms and commissions us to boldly proclaim this life-changing truth: He is alive!

Because He lives, we are victorious! Because Jesus conquered sin, death, and the devil, he ushered in forgiveness and eternal hope for all who believe. Through his rising, Jesus liberates us from despair, empowering us to live with renewed purpose and the unshakable assurance of salvation in his name. Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

How does living with the end goal in view redefine the Christian's understanding of success?

Pastor Doug Van Sice’s sermon preached at Faith on April 6, 2025.

In this sermon, we explore the timeless Parable of the Two Sons from Luke 15, a story that reveals the relentless, seeking love of our Heavenly Father for all his children. This love is certain whether the children have wandered far in reckless pursuit of freedom or remained close yet lost in self-righteousness. Through the younger son’s descent into the pig sty and the older son’s resentment in the fields, we uncover how God runs to meet us wherever we are, offering forgiveness, restoration, and a place in His celebration.

Do you view repentance as a gift or a burden? In this sermon, we explore the liberating truth that repentance is another way that God shows us his grace. The unsettling story of Pilate mixing Galilean blood with temple sacrifices sets the stage for Jesus’ words in Luke 13, shifting our focus from others’ sins to our own need for repentance. Meanwhile, the parable of a barren fig tree, spared by a patient gardener, showcases God’s enduring mercy. Together, these narratives unveil repentance as a gift that allows us to rest in Jesus’ love.

Citizenship matters. Paul wrote to Christians in Philippi who understood the benefits of being Roman citizens, and he reminded them that Christians are citizens of heaven. In this reading, he encourages all of us to live up the calling we have received, and to let our heavenly citizenship define our daily walk and our eternal hopes.

“The battle is the Lord’s.” That short statement is both incredibly comforting and shockingly frustrating. We love to hear those words and to be reminded that God is ultimately in control. On the other hand, we want to stand up and fight for ourselves. We want to show off our self-sufficiency. But what if we couldn’t fight the battle that needed to be won? Join us for this sermon as we unpack the epic story of David vs. Goliath, showing how David points us to our greater Champion who always fights for us, Jesus.
